Does Revis cover Wallace or Ward this week? (1 Viewer)

[CowboysFromHell]

Anyone heard one way or the other?

 

[Zackattack]

I think I read on Rotoworld that Ward would be covered by Revis because of wards more physical nature. I am looking for more info too. I play both Ward and Wallace in 2 different leagues.

 

[gasFace]

Local news said he will be on Wallace

 

[Routilla]

So Revis follows Wallace whether he lines up wide left, right or in the slot? Sounds like PIT would love to be able to dictate the DEF like this. Sounds like a big game for Ward if this is so.

 

[Drunken Cowboy]

I don't think anybody is fast enough to stay with Wallace.

 

[myhousekey]

I've heard Ward is the guy Revis covers which makes the most sense to me. You don't want a guy with a bad hammy running wind sprints down the field with Wallace play after play. Cromartie would seem to be a better fit for that role.

 

[Dought Man]

Ward will be vacationing on Revis Island. I don't think he will enjoy his stay. Wallace will be staying on Alcatraz and should have more freedom.

 

[ScottyDog]

It appears he will be covering Ward. If so, Wallace might be a good play. What about Cromartie?" Is he beatable or is he also considered a shut down corner?

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/10350/1111110-66.stm

Receiver Hines Ward is looking forward to the challenge against the All-Pro corner, who played at Aliquippa High School and Pitt before breaking into the NFL

"I'm a big Revis fan," Ward said. "I watched him at Pitt. For me, I'll do some extra studying. He's a great man-to-man player. If my number is called, I have to be able to scratch, claw, do whatever it takes to help our team make plays."

Ward said he expects to be matched up with Revis and for Mike Wallace to be matched against Antonio Cromartie.

This. If they attempt to put Revis "one on one" with Wallace, he will get burned all night. Of course Revis will have safety help, but the safety will not get any credit for helping out.

Hah, sorry man. Honestly, I am not sure if they keep him on one player. I would think he may be on Ward more than Wallace simpy because Cromartie isnt the guy you want on a physical guy like Ward, plus he has better speed than Revis and his skills match up better with Wallace.

 

[ScottyDog]

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I have been bouncing around on the boards and am hearing pretty much exactly the same thing you are saying. Thanks for the help.

[nysportsfan]

I think many see it this way, but I guess we won't know until tomorrow. GL.

 

[footballsavvy]

Makes more sense to cover ward because he can be effectively played man up. Whenever you are dealing with 4.3 speed you don't want one person covering him. It doesn't matter how experienced they are, you rarely find any defensive coordinator sticking with man coverage on a WR who runs a 4.3.

By letting Revis handle Ward by himself it frees up some help on Wallace. In theory they should be able to control Wallace very well with lots of "shadowing", "cheating" or whatever, since 10 of their 11 players won't have to worry about Ward. In reality, I think Ward will beat Revis a fair amount since Revis is not 100% healthy and has been beat under these circumstances often this season. Wallace will be lucky to have a single big play this week. That's the beauty of a shutdown CB. It doesn't just hurt the guy he is shutting down. It makes the whole defense gel.

Pretty negligible. Cromartie ran a 4.37 in his pro-day workout while Revis ran a 4.38.

The fact of the mater is that Revis can cover all kinds of receivers while Cromartie can't. Like you wrote, I think Revis handles a physical receiver like Ward better, thus I would expect to see Cromartie on Wallace.

Not one of them is as fast as Wallace.

 

[footballsavvy]

They won't man up on Wallace because they won't be forced to. This is the luxury of having stud defensive backs.

 

[Clorox]

I would worry more about the sputtering Steelers offense than who will be covering Wallace. Ben hasn't had a lot of time to throw, which doesn't let Wallace get down the field. In the last two or three games, the most effective pass to Wallace has been the quick pass while Wallace is still standing on the line of scrimmage. He's been getting solid yardage every time on those plays, which makes me wonder why they haven't been using that all season.

That said, I'm starting him over Terrell Owens and Steve Breaston.

Where did I say they weren't, but Wallace might be the fastest guy in the league. His game is just run past you and Revis can't stop that.

 

[mizat000]

What makes anyone think that Revis is not 100% at this point in time? He and Ryan have said his hammy is 100%. Other teams are simply not targeting the WR he covers - that's why he's not on highlight reals.

I still don't really trust Cro against Wallace. He has looked great for a few plays, then lousy for others. I hope the Jets have Lowery shade over as safety on Wallace VERY OFTEN or he could be in for a couple of huge plays against Cro.

Missed that, thanks. Worth noting that its his other hamstring, not the one he tweaked earlier in the year. Seems like Rex just wanted to give him a day off. Hopefully Pit will over-think this "sore" hamstring and target him more.

Again, I am doubtful Revis is scared of Wallace. This is especially true because Wallace has been knocked for having a bit of trouble getting off the line against phyisical corners. Revis is, by the way, maybe the best jammer in the league. Of couse Wallace can bust one, I'm just in the camp that believes Revis will come out on top.

Come on man, don't you know that Rhodes passed away like in "Heaven Can Wait" and came back to play as Eric Smith to help shut down Calvin Johnson, Andre Johnson, TO and others this year? Thank God Revis has all these great safeties in NY to help him shut down opposing #1 WRs. Smith and Poole should be All Pro safeties.

Stinky bait? LOL, go find a Revis highlight video on youtube without seeing Rhodes helping him out. The NY media creates this "Revis Island" myth to suck in NY fans in believing he's the second coming of Christ, and rather than watching for themselves, they mimic everything they hear.Nobody said Revis sucks. He's obviously a great player, but listening to some people around here comparing him to Woodson and Prim Time after one good season is laughable.

And, to your question, what has Revis done since Rhodes was let go? Oh, right, he had a "sore hammy". You really think the Pats put up 45 points on the Jets with Revis "shutting down half the field"? He was invisible that day.

Revis is not the best CB in the league. He's the best CB on his team, so naturally opposing teams are going to pick on the other DB's, especially the rookie Wilson.

I do realize though, that this is the last thing Jets fans have to hang their hat on this season, so I'll cut you guys some slack

 

[NYRAGE]

You're right, he's not special at all. Ward had no receptions against Revis today (one against Cole, one against Coleman). It must have been Rhodes helping out over the top again. Or maybe it was Dwight Lowery, converted from CB to safety this week.

Was at the game. Most of the time, Revis covered Sanders, Cromartie covered Wallace, and Bolden covered Ward. Revis was on Wallace the last play of the game though.

Rhodes was unhappy in the Jets defense because he was often used as a decoy to get the QBs to throw toward Revis's side. That is the opposite of helping him out in coverage.

 

[DesmondBishop]

Revis was on Sanders for about 75% or more of the snaps, the announcers also said at the start of the game, Revis will be covering Sanders due to a "sore hammy".

Revis is a great player, definitely ONE of the best in the league today, but the way you talk about him, you make most non Jet fans hate the guy. Just like Bronco fans used to do with Champ, if we are on these boards then we probably watch a lot of football and we all hear and see he is a great player. But you guys acting like he shuts down everyone completely by himself is ridiculous and when he gets burned it's a bad hammy or the safety was suppose to pick that guy up, but when anyone says he gets help, then we don't know what we are talking about.

Anyone who follows the Jets understands that he gets help..everyone does. But to intimate that Rhodes was the reason for success is jsut wrong. When healthy, he shuts down everyone. I don't know what else to say

Wrong. If Jets fans ever admitted he gets help, there would be none of these dumb threads. It's the fact that you list players he shut down and don't give credit to anyone else for helping him that dives non-Jets fans crazy. Comparing him to the greatest DB's of all time, asking how he would do against Jerry Rice, etc, that's what's ridiculous and anoying.And I don't care who called it "Revis Island" first, it's the media that hypes it. Did the WR who called it that create a Nike commercial for it?He covered the third best receiver on the Steelers yesterday and he still had 78 yards against God Jr. 3rd and 24, in the last minute of the game, Big Ben hits his receiver for 29 and a first down. Who was covering that receiver, and who could have tackled him short of the first down? Your man Revis, that's who. But you can go on thinking he's the greatest DB that ever lived. Keep complaining when he loses out to better backs in the MVP voting. It's really ok to know he's a great player, but for some reason that's not good enough for Jets fans.

Who would you say is close... I can't think of any CB close to Revis.If we are talking about DBs in general, including safety then maybe.
